[UK] Mountain Dew

Crap, man, I feel bad for you.

Mountain Dew and Pepsi products are the only sodas I drink. Mountain Dew rocks!

55MG caffine in a 20oz, highest in any soda.

SOFT DRINK (12-oz. serving)            CAFFEINE CONTENT (mg)
Jolt                                             72.0
Sugar-Free Mr. Pibb                              58.8
Mountain Dew                                     54.0
Mello Yello                                      52.8
TAB                                              46.8
Coca-Cola                                        45.6
Data obtained from the National Soft Drink Association

Thought you might like to see that. I'll pass on the Sugar-Free Mr. Pibb, but Jolt! He|| Yeah!! BZZZZZZING!! :woot:

I think I've finally figured out what I want to do with my life. I will create a market shipping high quality american products to the lesser fortunate UK people.

I will ship exactly thirty boxes of Lucky Charms and thirty cases of Mountain Dew (ten of regular, ten of code red, ten of livewire.) It will cost you only about $50,000 USD. Remember, they stopped shipping these products through the 'official' lines, so they MUST be banned products. This is strictly through black market lines.

I would like all unmarked bills in ONE DOLLAR increments, and rolled up and placed inside of 5,000 slim jim cans. I would like the slim jim cans delivered to my 'alternative' address in columbia where it will be processed and put back on the street as drug money which will fund terrorist activites like buying camels to ride to the airport.

Also i think that it was something to do with Mountain Dew contained Quinoline Yellow (spelling?) for the colour, which causes cancer, and whoever controls the food regulations (government?) got all ****y about it. Then again ive seen recently that soft drnks here contain that same chemical, so BRING IT BACK!

I remember it getting banned on the news in 80's. It contained some chemicals that caused cancer or damaged brain cells. Similar to Cokes tap water scandal recently. Can't find any details of this anywhere so it could just be an urban legend. Personally I think it contains additives that cause addiction, posts in this thread would warrant that. UK has very strict standards on food stuffs, unlike America.

Yes i used to love mountain dew, i still remember the packaging, green bottle with red lettering, anyways after they took it off the shelves it was horrible not being able to buy it anymore. The same way with Liptonice, lemon tea? I just thought everything sucked in UK, always taking away the good stuff.

But hey life goes on right, then on my first visit to toronto to see my bf, i found they have both mountain dew AND Liptonice over there, i thought wow, fantastic...gonna go mad now..but you know what? its not so great anymore.

I guess i outgrew my teenage eating habits along with my taste for chemical laden, funny coloured ,sugar infested fizzy water.. wonder why i thought it was so great?? :blink:

A friend of mine from the UK that came over for a visit a few years back had an obsession with twinkies...guess you can't get those over there either.

Too bad he bought a couple boxes and forgot to pack them :pinch:

Na, you can't get them over here (Damn this country! :angry: ) I so wanna try one!, as for Mountain Dew, i'll sign the petition only had it once, would be nice to try it again :p
